Leviticus 19:3

19:3 Each of you must respect his mother and his father, ¹  and you must keep my Sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.

Leviticus 21:2

21:2 except for his close relative who is near to him: ²  his mother, his father, his son, his daughter, his brother,

Leviticus 21:11

21:11 He must not go where there is any dead person; ³  he must not defile himself even for his father and his mother.

¹ tn Heb “A man his mother and his father you [plural] shall fear.” The LXX, Syriac, Vulgate, and certain Targum mss reverse the order, “his father and his mother.” The term “fear” is subject to misunderstanding by the modern reader, so “respect” has been used in the translation. Cf. NAB, NRSV “revere”; NASB “reverence.”

² tn Heb “except for his flesh, the one near to him.”

³ tc Although the MT has “persons” (plural), the LXX and Syriac have the singular “person” corresponding to the singular adjectival participle “dead” (cf. also Num 6:6).
